accessing emails overseas

[ranger]

OK, how do we access our emails from the USA (Honolulu )?

Specifically a free gmail.com acct???

We have no phone, i pad ........so obviously need to go "somewhere' to do this.

Thank you

Your hotel 'business centre'?
Mind you, with what you'll pay you might as well buy a cheap <$300 laptop in the US just for this purpose!

Internet cafe perhaps???

If you have an el cheapo laptop or what not, you'll have no worries finding hotspots. Otherwise, a quick google before you leave of internet cafes while you're over there.

If it's a new Gmail account, and all of a sudden you're accessing in another country, big G can often freeze your account until you can verify it (SMS etc) - but that's only a concern if it's a brand new gmail account

If you have no portable computer of your own you'll have to use a public computer. The public libraries have them as wess as a few internet cafes around HNL.

Netstop Premium is near Wakiki (about a kay), or your hotel shold have public computers. If it's a webmail account you should be able to log in anywhere

You can set up a free gmail account....and forward copies of emails to all your other email accounts to the gmail account....so you only have to check 1 email (gmail) account whilst away.
